BIODEGRADABILITY: A CHALLENGE FOR THE FUTURE



The terms biodegradable and compostable are often used as synonyms since the difference between these two terms is not always clear, it is important to analyze and briefly define them and give them.


Biodegradability is the ability of organic substances and materials to be degraded into simpler substances through the enzymatic activity of microorganisms. If this biological process is complete, there is a total conversion of the initial organic substances into simple inorganic molecules such as water, carbon dioxide, and methane.


Compostability, on the other hand, is the ability of organic material to transform itself into compost through the process of composting. This process exploits the biodegradability of organic materials to transform them into a final product that is called compost. The compost is, therefore, the result of disintegration and aerobic biodegradation (i.e. in the presence of oxygen) of organic material (usually waste): the mature compost resembles fertile soil and for its richness in organic substances is used as a fertilizer.
